Search

In this page you can locate and retrieve existing documents in the Archive. The page is divided in two sections: basic filters - destined to the casual user with few knowledge about the structure of descriptive information data and advanced filters - where it can combine different possibilities and search criteria.

Basic filters

In the "basic filters" section the user may select the search terms and/or the documents production dates. The option "inclusive dates" allows search records whose dates are in the defined extreme dates in the search criteria. You may also indicate if you only want to search records with associated digital representations, meaning only to show the documents which digital version can be consulted online through the Web.
